Forex Credit

If a trader tells you that they made a hundred pips profit, you don’t learn anything about their financial situation. If they’re trading a pair like EUR/USD where the buck is the quote currency, 100 pips profit would be $1,000 on a standard lot of $100,000 but only $10 on a $1,000 micro lot. If you have another currency as the quote currency, the pip is naturally in that currency, and you can multiply by the exchange rate to grasp the pip worth in dollars. All this may appear rather baffling at first sight but anyone who starts trading will pretty soon understand what a pip means in practice. Forex trading pips are a handy tool for measuring and recording movements in prices in foreign exchange trading..
